Biggest Disapointments
  1. Not getting into the Ivy league. I wouldn't have thought to apply, but one sent me an application, possibly based on standardized test scores.
  2. Not living happily ever after with my first college romance. I told myself I was going to woo and win the first person I fell for in college. There was a romance, but it didn't keep.
  3. Not becoming a writer. Or a teacher. Or a lego engineer.
  4. Not being rich.
  5. My dad dying while I was still a boring graceless adolescent.
  6. Having a marriage that seemed great but ended in divorce.
